So having trouble loading my old project into 8727 I’ve created a Vuo Plugin that you can place at various points between your plugins.
You can enter the following text
- PlugIn Position Number
- What Plug In Does this log come after
- What Plug In Does this log come before
When it loads it will write to the VDMX log file that info.
Technomorph Debug Log.vuo.zip (1.9 KB)
Unzip and install to your VDMX PlugIns folder at
~/Library/Application Support/VDMX/plugins
First Open Your Project in 8724 and save As so you don’t wreck anything.
Add the plugIn Named Technomorph Debug Log in your Plugins Tab
Now to Place it where you want it… You Need to rename appropriately.
I want it before the first Audio PlugIn.
So if you use the 1st Character of the Plugin you want before, then add a 1 to it. It should place it where you want it. In this case I named the first one A1 Debug Log.

Move you new plug in tab where you can see it.
Enter you info. In this case:
- PlugIn Position 1
- Comes After: Program INIT
- Comes Before: Audio PlugIn And Audio Control Surface Plugins
Now we need another copy… Don’t use Duplicate it doesn’t work.
Use the gear and COPY SELECTED PLUGIN TO CLIPBOARD.
Now Use Paste to New PlugIn… This should put it in the same Tab as the other.
For some reason it doesn’t know what to call the plugIn and it changes the category to XXX. It will be at the very top with an invisible name and the category XXX.
Now you can rename it and add info.
Once done all your placements…
---------------------------------------------======================================
-
Save a copy of this new project.
-
Change VDMX Preferences to not Trigger 1st Preset on project launch
(this will allow VDMX to compile any Vuo resources it needs to and it will also load all of the files) -
Quit VDMX 8724
-
Open the Console App and Go to ~/Library/Logs/VDMX
-
reopen 8724
-
Go to the Console and select the very last file in the logs
-
Watch it populate as it loads the App
-
then open the project you just made with your new plugIns.
-
again goto Console and Watch, don’t trigger for a bit, til you see all activity die down
-
once ready go to your presets menu and trigger your first preset
-
again goto Console and Watch, it should show the loading action
(I’ll show examples in next post) -
once it finished launching, save it as a different copy
-
quit
Then open 8727 and follow the above except open you copy.
